This CL migrates the CPP builtin to CSA with fast paths for strings
that can be unpacked to direct one-byte strings. Short strings are
handled directly in CSA, others need to call into C for conversion.
Microbenchmarks for "abcd".toLowerCase() show speedups of 2.5x.

In the shell sample don't print the result of executing a script, only
evaluating expressions.
Fixed issue when building samples on Windows using a shared V8
library. Added visibility option on Linux build which makes the
generated library 18% smaller.
Changed build system to accept multiple build modes in one build and
generate seperate objects, libraries and executables for each mode.
Removed deferred negation optimization (a * -b => -(a * b)) since this
visibly changes operand conversion order.
Improved parsing performance by introducing stack guard in preparsing.
Without a stack guard preparsing always bails out with stack overflow.
